Turris is better than Barkov by a fair margin, has an incredible contract, and is a huge steal. I really think Barkov is being overvalued based on potential here.

Corey Crawford - G - 6'2" 200lbs - Catches L In the past year I've gone from thinking Crawford was a very average goaltender, to one I will grudgingly admit seems to be pretty good. Maybe even one of the better goaltenders in the league. A technically proficient goaltender in the mid 80s born French Canadian goaltender style, he's not going to wow you with highlight reel saves. However, he's efficient in his movement and generally a reliable backstop. I feel weird selecting him so high because I don't think I thought of him as ranking among the top 20 goaltenders in the league last year, but seems I've been proven wrong. He's signed for too much for too long though.

Crawford is average as gently caress. There's 30 or 40 other goalies that could and would win a cup with that team in front of them.

Should we auto El Galinero again or something? Just treat him as a bot for the time being?

Ribiero would both be fair and cool cuz I wouldn't draft him anyway for being a piece of poo poo

Hi I would like to strongly protest separating Henrik and Daniel, particularly for a drat auto-drafting team.

# ? Jul 30, 2015 21:24 |

This was a tough a choice for me, I was originally planning on taking a defenseman but I think most of the guys I was considering will still be available in the next few rounds. Instead the Arizona(?) Coyotes are proud to select Brandon Saad.

I don't think I drafted him before, though there's no way I'm looking it up to prove it. I wouldn't have minded if somebody actually drafted Daniel this go around, but It does kind of piss me off that he went to an owner that hasn't even made a single pick, particularly because I would have picked Daniel with my pick coming up today if he was there.

Cool, my turn. I know when it comes back around to me, the 2C options are going to suck donkeys, but there are not many possession-driving players still left, and I feel like, even though he's offensively declining, my next pick is still an absolute monster away from the puck and is going to play in all situations, and he's good for 60 points. I have a hard-on for players who are good in all situations and good defensively. I want my team to be balanced and difficult to play against in all three zones. So, with this being said: The New Jersey Devils are proud to select Marian Hossa to complement Derek Stepan on the first line and to complement the game-dominating defensive pairing of Victor Hedman and Ryan McDonagh.

I literally had a post written up for a d-man but gently caress it. Kronwall was probably the last clear cut #1 D that isn't 38 years old so I'm taking David Backes because depth down the middle, defense, consistent 25-30 goal scorer, leadership, intangibles etc... e: Gaudreau-Mackinnon-? ?-Backes-? Price

Alright, I'm terrible at write-ups, so have a series of images for Henrik Sedin, 2010 Hart Trophy and Art Ross Trophy winner, the Flyers third round pick: I'll post my next pick in a few once I figure out who's available. All but one guy from my 15 person list was taken since I took Henrik and I don't want that guy as much, so I need to figure it out.

Oh wait, Sami Vatanen hasn't been taken yet, I'll pick him because he's ridiculously good with the puck. Also he just turned 24 and will probably continue to get better. Here's the Flyers so far: Voracek-Henrik-Kane Vatanen mentholmoose fucked around with this message at 22:25 on Jul 30, 2015 |
